Trivex vein treatment

I am 45 years old and had what the doctor called huge pipes as varicose veins. I had a vein procedure years ago on my other leg and was not happy at all with all the pain and the result. I had Trivex procedure on this leg and I'm glad I waited for this. I wish it was available 6 years ago when I did my first procedure. I went home within an hour of the procedure. I took it a little easy over the weekend, had my dressing changed on Monday and went back to work on Tuesday. I have such relief from the aching and pain and the pipes are gone. I was allergic to the pain medicine prescription so I only took motrin and it was fine. You should walk after surgery and it feels better. I checked on my surgeon and even talked to some other patients in his waiting room before I met him and they told me it was easy so I felt good about doing it.
